I still can't believe that I LOVED a film in which EVERY line of dialog was sung by the actors! When I first heard about this, I was VERY hesitant to watch, but decided to give it a shot. After all, I really like French films.
The story concerns the love between a young girl and her slightly older boyfriend who is called up for military service. Can their love survive the many obstacles in its way? --Other than that, I'd rather not reveal the plot or the twists, as I'd hate to spoil it for the reader.
Suffice to say, this is an absolutely beautiful film throughout--especially the incredible cinematography. So beautiful and engaging that I found myself in tears as the movie concluded--and the ending is one of my favorites in film history. This says a lot, as I don't usually find myself so affected by movies. Have some Kleenex handy!
